Halfway Between 85 and 230

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 230?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=85 and Y=230.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 230, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 230 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 230)/2 = 157.5

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 230 is 157.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 157.5 and subtract 157.5 from 230 and compare the two numbers:

157.5 - 85 = 72.5
230 - 157.5 = 72.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 72.5 higher than 85 and 72.5 lower than 230. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 157.5 above is correct.
